In the Wake of the Twentieth Century

Who will build the bridges now, with the Twentieth Century racing away? We aren't interested in building bridges anymore. What a time that was when we were.

What an era for the lucky ones. An era of growth. Of prosperity. Of progress. Of bridges and highways across the continent. Of engines of commerce and power plants lighting up the cities.

What an era. For some. But now it has passed. And its hopes. And its dreams.

There isn't room for hopes or dreams anymore. Our eyes and our hearts and our minds are elsewhere. In the hatred and greed that is left behind in the wake.

Hatred and greed. Listen to what I say. Get out of my way. Shut your mouth. I'm not interested in what you think. That's all that is left.

So, who will build the bridges now?
